Corpse Party: Tortured Souls

It's a cruel anime. But fantastic. I enjoyed it. It's a different type of horror animes. It has an intense environment. You won't be scared but you will feel scary. Good anime.

REPIR THAT FREAKING TRIPOD. THAT WAS ALL HAVE A GREAT DAY.

This is an excellent horror anime. The plot is very strong and with every episode becomes more and more profound and disturbing. The characters are all very interesting and relateable, each in their own strange way. There is ample gore and graphic imagery, with a few of the most imaginative/shocking deaths I've witnessed in a series. One of its shortcomings could be argued to be its duration (only four episodes) but at the same time, it stays fresh, non repetitive and easy to watch in a single sitting. There are a couple of minor plot holes and a few ideas that are toyed with but not fully developed but they don't take a significant tole on the quality of the anime. Warning: not for the squeamish

Honestly, I didn't even make it through the first episode. The characters are flat and generic, the animation is mediocre, the story doesn't even try to make sense, and the dialogues are utterly forgettable.

I wouldn't exactly call myself a fan of horror anime, but I recently watched Higurashi GOU and Another, and both of those shows did a pretty good job. They weren't exactly masterpieces, just like most horror movies aren't exactly Oscar-worthy, but at least they try.

I highly doubt that Corpse Party tried all that hard. It honestly seemed like something a bunch of bored students would cobble together as some kind of end-of-term project.

I herd of this online and decided at 4 episodes it would be a nice quick watch. At the beginning, I really disliked the show. It had scenes of fan service, incredibly gruesome and violent images, and a few unanswered questions.

Although I disliked the beginning, the show did build interesting characters and draw me in more and more each episode. If I had watched episode 1- 2 alone I likely would have given this a 5-6, but by the end I felt it was a good watch (assuming you don't have a weak stomach).

The resolve of this show, how it wrapped up, was really what sold me on whether I liked or disliked this show. Overall I give it 7 because all though I wasn't fond of a few scenes, I felt the characters, twists and turns, and ending made it worth the watch.
